  • Ensure proper installation and provide advice for long-term care and maintenance.

 

 

Steps for families working with stonemasons

1. Consultation

Start by discussing your vision and requirements with an approved stonemason. They'll guide you through design options, materials, and costs to create a memorial that aligns with your wishes.

 

View the approved stonemason listing that is provided as a guide and is not an endorsement of any stonemason. Metropolitan Memorial Parks takes no responsibility for your choice of stonemason or their work.

 

2. Design approval

Once you finalise a design, the stonemason will submit it to Metropolitan Memorial Parks for approval. This ensures the memorial complies with regulations and maintains the aesthetic harmony of our grounds.

 

3. Construction

After approval from Metropolitan Memorial Parks, the stonemason will commence work, adhering to safety protocols and quality standards. They'll coordinate with our team to schedule construction at a suitable time.

 

4. Completion and inspection

When complete, the memorial will be inspected by Metropolitan Memorial Parks to ensure it meets all agreed specifications and requirements. Any final adjustments will be addressed by the stonemason, ensuring your satisfaction and compliance with our standards of safety, quality, and heritage preservation.
